REFRIGERATION SYSTEMComponent Description
COMPRESSOR:The compressor is a factory sealed unit located underneath (outside) the cooling cabinet. This pump is activated by a motor which draws low pressure vapor (refrigerant) from the evaporator. It then compresses the gas and forces it into the condenser at a high pressure.
STARTER RELAY:The starter relay is attached on one side of the compressor box. The compressor motor has two windings: one for starting and another for running. In order to provide for the necessary additional torque when the motor is first ignited, the starter relay connects the additional start-up windings. Af-ter the motor reaches its correct operating speed, the relay opens the ignition windings and the motor carries on with the operation windings.
THERMAL PROTECTOR:This protector is a thermo-sensible device attached to one side of the compressor’s box. In any given
situation, if the compressor overheats or if the voltage source varies drastically, the thermal protector opens, turning off the compressor. After the compressor cools down to a normal and safe working temperature, the thermal protector turns on the compressor.
CONDENSER:The condenser is located underneath (outside) the cooling cabinet in front of the compressor. Its receives hot, high pressure refrigerant gas from the compressor, and cools it down until it returns to liquid state.
CONDENSER FAN MOTOR:The condenser fan motor is located underneath the cooling cabinet. It is a ventilation device which forces the ambient air to flow over the condenser in order to cool down the refrigerant flowing inside it. The fan motor works only if the compressor is on.

REFRIGERATION SYSTEMComponent Description
EVAPORATOR:The evaporator is located inside the cooling cabinet. As the gas flows at a low pressure through the evaporator, it absorbs serpentine and removes the heat from inside the cabinet.
EVAPORATOR FAN MOTOR:This device produces the required circulation of air through the cooling cabinet as well as over the surface of the evaporator’s serpentine thermal exchange area. This fan motor runs continuously.
The evaporator and condenser serpentines have aluminum fins that help increase the surfaces for the thermal exchange in an efficient way.
CAPILLARY TUBE:It consist of several feet of tubing having a small inside diameter. It is a device used to control the amount od refrigerant that flows into the evaporator.
DRIER:The drier is located in between the condenser and the evaporator. It traps and removes moisture in the refrigeration system while allowing oil and refrigerant to flow freely.
ACCUMULATOR:The accumulator is located in between the evaporator and the compressor. It is a storage tank which receives refrigerant liquid from the evaporator and prevents it from flowing into the compressor.
ENERGY SAVING ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT:The electronic thermostat is responsable for detecting temperature changes inside the cabinet. It starts the compressor whenever the cabinet temperature rises above the desired temperature. The compressor recirculates the refrigerant throughout the system, lowering the temperature inside the cooling compartment. When the temperature drops to the set point programmed in the thermostat, it turns off the compressor and a new cycle starts again.
This electronic thermostat contains a dispositive to save energy when the sales of the day are over. This dispositive is activated by pressing the “Energy Saving” button of the thermostat. When this button is pressed, the lights are turned off and the refrigerator starts operating in a warmer temperature setting, consuming less energy.
COOLING CABINET:This is the area where the goods are stored. It has been designed to allow for constant cold air circulation to flow through the goods.

THE REFRIGERATION CYCLE
1. As the temperature inside the cooling compartment increases, it is detected by the thermostats’ sensor. The thermostat then turns the compressor and the condenser motor on once the programmed temperature is reached.
2. The compressor recirculates the refrigerant throughout the system by drawing the refrigerant gas
at a low vapor pressure from the evaporator. Then it compresses the refrigerant and forces it into the condenser.
3. The condenser, with the help of its fan motor, removes the refrigerants’ heat as its flows through the condenser. The heat is then released to the outside environment. Consequently, the decrease in temperature will change the refrigerant from a gaseous to a liquid state.
4. The capillary tube regulates the amount of refrigerant that is discharged into the evaporator and expands it. This expansion causes the refrigerant temperature to decrease.
5. The evaporators' serpentine allows the refrigerant to absorb and remove heat from the cooling compartment.
6. The drop in temperature inside the cooling compartment is caused by the refrigerant’s continuous circulation through the system. This gas continuously absorbs the heat that exists inside the cooling compartment and expels it to the outside environment. When the temperature drops to its programmed set point, it is detected by the thermostat and it turns off the compressor and condenser motor.
